Xie Yunlin was not interested in this topic at all, but since he was here to make an apology, he would have to bear with any nonsensical talk Gu Junzhu might come up with, such as commenting on the fine weather today or asking about what he had eaten in the morning.

Thus, he humbly asked, all ears to his explanation: “Why?”

Gu Junzhu looked at him, then at Ye Xingbei, who’s eyes were cast down, fists clenched, and body tense. With a slight smirk picking at the corners of his lips, he said leisurely, “Because Ye Xingbei isn’t Jiang Zhengxing’s biological daughter, but your father Jiang Zhengwei’s daughter!”

“…Fifth Brother, what…what did you say?” Xie Yunlin’s eyes widened in shock.

Xie Jinfei was left speechless too.

Even Xiang Bingzhi stood up in astonishment, looking at Ye Xingbei in disbelief.

Ye Xingbei is cousin’s real sister?

No!

This can’t be!

Ye Xingbei is clearly a woman of notorious reputation.

How could she possibly be her cousin’s real sister?

If Ye Xingbei is indeed her cousin’s real sister, wouldn’t that make her the Young Lady of Xie family?

The status of being the Young Lady of Xiang family, and the cousin of Young Lady of Xie family was her pride.

Even though she was now kneeling on the floor while Ye Xingbei sat on the sofa, she still felt superior compared to Xingbei’s humility.

But if Ye Xingbei is her cousin’s real sister, her status in the future will be superior to hers.

She would never be able to surpass Ye Xingbei in her lifetime.

How could this be possible?

No!

This is not true!

This must not be true!

She stared intensely at Ye Xingbei, refusing to believe all this.

Gu Junzhu looked at Xie Yunlin and calmly narrated, “Years back, your parents died in a car accident. Your grandparents pitied you for losing your mother at a young age and wanted to bring you and your siblings to Beijing for a short stay. But your sister fell seriously ill and was hospitalized. Consequently, your grandparents took only you two brothers along.

Soon, news came from Beijing that you two were going to stay there and change your last names to ‘Xie’.

Jiang Family may be the first prominent family in Beijing, but compared to Xie Family in Beijing, they are insignificant.

Jiang Huan knew he wouldn’t dare to snatch you from Beijing, knowing that two grandsons would be poached by Xie Family. Therefore, he targeted your sister who was still in Jiang City.

He was afraid that your sister would also be taken away by your grandparents. Coincidentally, your sister and Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter were hospitalized with serious illnesses at the same time. Your sister survived, while Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter died.

Jiang Huan came up with an idea and did a “Substitute one’s death with another’s”. He publicly announced that the one who died was your real sister. Then he gave your real sister to Jiang Zhengxing to raise, falsely claiming that the one who survived was Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter. Thus deceiving both you and Xie Family.”

Xie Yunlin and Xie Jinfei listened in astonishment and disbelief.

Especially Xie Jinfei, staring at Ye Xingbei, a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Is she his sister?

His real sister?

He still remembers the way their mother looked when she was pregnant with his sister.

He and his brother both wanted a sister. Every day when they came back from school, they would cuddle against their mother, rubbing her belly and talking to the baby inside, encouraging it to be brave, to definitely come out as a sister, and not a brother.

One day, when they returned from school, their father told them that their mother had given birth to a little sister. Jumping with joy and excitement, they asked their father to take them to the hospital to see their sister.

At the hospital, they saw a little baby lying next to their mother.

Such a tiny creature, yet so incredibly beautiful.

Her skin was white and tender, her little mouth and soft cheeks were all endearing to them in every way..
